TOWN OF NANTUCKET
NANTUCKET, MASSACHUSETTS
Decision:
The Board of Appeals, at a public hearing held on Friday,
December 13, 1991, at 1:00 P.M., at the Town and County Building,
Nantucket, made the following decision upon the application of
ROBERT HAWKINS as Trustee of WHITE STAR PROPERTIES TRUST (082 -91)
address: c/o Reade & Alger Professional Corporation, Post Office
Box 2669, Nantucket, Massachusetts.
1. This i-s an application for Modification under Nantucket
Zoning By -law Section 139 -29A of the Special Permit granted in
Case No. 028 -83 (see Certificate of Granting dated June 9, 1983,
recorded in Book 226, Page 335, at Nantucket Deeds), to allow for
an increase in ground cover of a pre- existing non - conforming
structure by 23 feet, to enable reconstruction of an interior
stairway in conformity with building code requirements. The
subject property (the "Locus") is located at. 21 OLD NORTH WHARF
(Assessor's Parcel 42.3.1 -028), Plan File 21 -122, and is zoned
RESIDENTIAL - COMMERCIAL.
2. In Case No. 028 -83, special permit relief was granted
to allow for the combination of the then existing structures on
the Locus into one residential dwelling. Pursuant to that
relief, a building permit was secured by the then applicant, and
the structures were combined into one residential dwelling.
Construction under the building permit was completed in 1985, and
Certificate of Occupancy No. 3036 -85 issued thereon.
3. Applicant now requests a modification of the relief
previously granted to allow for a 23 foot increase in the ground
cover of the existing structure upon the lot, in order to
reconstruct an interior stairway in conformity with the state
building code. Applicant informs us that the existing stairway
is narrow, changes direction- sharply several times, and does not
have sufficient headroom to enable safe passage.
4. We have received several letters from neighboring
property owners in support of the application and the favorable
recommendation of the Planning Board. No opposition has been
made known to us.
5. We have no difficulty finding, and do find, that the
proposed increase in ground cover by 23 feet of the pre- existing
nonconforming structure is a minor modification of the relief
-1-
previously granted, and that such increase in the ground cover of
the structure will not be substantially more detrimental to the
neighborhood than the existing nonconforming structure.
6. Accordingly, for the reasons herein stated, this Board
grants a modification of Special Permit relief granted in Case
No. 028 -33 to allow for a 23 foot increase in ground cover of the
existing structure, by unanimous vote.
